Most people who are interested in this subject know the book that they are looking at, so if you don’t mind, rather than waste any more time on a synopsis, I won't. But if you require any additional photographs please let me know.
The dedication reads simply “To Wallis”
This is a lovely hard back book with wine red cloth boards, a gilded spine and gilt coat of arms and facsimile of his Majesties signature on the front. There is no dust jacket.
It has fine clean pages without marks or blemishes and has mapped end papers and contains a frontispiece and twenty two pages of gravure illustrations.
Over time the books cover has faded and the gilt is not as bright as it once was and there is outside wear commensurate with the volumes age but the pages within are as good as new and the photos as good as when they were published.
So all in all a lovely sound rare copy and older than me!
